#2 The woman refused and requested that the soldier get search her manually, without being undressed.

"Come pat me down and see if I have a bomb."

#3 next time Maan will report the use of the Zionist death ray for viewing bombs under clothes

#4 They probably weren't carrying themselves, just probing defenses. The Paleos have figured out that familiarity breeds contempt, so will do several dry runs before taking a bomb.

#5 I might suggest to the Israelis that they create an armored room that is rigged to have a strong magnetic pulse. While harmless to humans, even a very short wire will develop a milli-amperage overcharge, which is enough to pop many electrical detonators.

The room should also have a large drain in the middle of the floor, and a water hose connector on one wall. A pressure relief gap in the roof above would also be good.

#6 'Moose,
You've hit it. Make that a standard entry point agenda. And, make several of them go in together. Think they don't know who's wired up ? Watch them wet their rags on being herded in. This is a great solution. Doesn't require any "hands on" , discussions, shouting, can't be humiliated, etc. ( Blown to f**king bits, yes) All positive. No negatives. Implement posthaste.

#7 That's cooler than my idea. I was going to suggest just lining the room with tile and turning it into a giant microwave to set off the bombs. Course, I'm not sure the effect of microwaves on modern explosives and detonators, so numerous trial runs would be needed.

A glass wall for viewing by the people waiting in line would also be instructive and serve a useful purpose.

In terms of coolness, Microwave Beam weapons are my favorite right now:)

#8 As much as I like the idea, the Paleo propaganda machine would just claim that the Jooooooooos just herded innocent women, children, and fluffy ducklings into a room and blew them up.

#9 It's time to turn that machine on it's head. The Israeli's should tell the paleo's that if they continue to fire rockets into Israel, they can't ensure their safety. The next time a rocket is fired into Israel, pick a nearby Paleo village and use it for arty practice. Be sure and do lots of spotting for effect too.

#10 How many did undress ?
Maybe it's time to get me a checkpoint.

#11 Silentbrick: I've long suggested that the city of Sderot get itself a 105mm Howitzer to shoot down incoming rockets.

They can't help it if their defensive weapon isn't very accurate.

#12 Damn that would be a good idea. Get a couple of them to 'triangulate' their targetting.....

#13 Anonymoose,

Are you suggesting that a giant, multi-barreled 105mm version of a CIWS be built? That would be pretty cool too, especially if the shells aren't set to detonate unless they hit something. I wonder how many batteries of 105mm regular artillery that'd be equal to?

I can say this with total certainty, I wouldn't wanna be downrange of something like that.
